Updated libarchive packages fix a security vulnerability
Details

Updated libarchive packages fix security vulnerability:

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way libarchive processed certain archives. An attacker could create a specially crafted archive that, when processed by an application using the libarchive library, would cause that application to crash (rhbz#1216891).
